Sleepover Cake

Sleepover Cake on Cake Central

SEVERAL of you inspired this one. This was my first time for fondant heads and figures (or body parts!!) and I had a GREAT time making it. I put fondant through my (clean) garlic press to make the hair! This was a 10" cake that could have been a lot bigger-I almost ran out of room and put the girl's name on the side.

Very cute! You did a good job on the modeling, I especially like the girl in the green sleeping bag. The pizza looks delish.

Pizza, Popcorn, and giggles sounds like a great sleepover. As the mother of six girls I can tell you this is what it looks like. Great job a very cute cake

Thank you for all your nice comments! This was a first for me, so I'm learning as I go. I just shaped the heads out of fondant/gumpaste mix and poked indentions for the eyes and lips. When they dried, I used Americolor white on a toothpick first, then mixed a little pink with water to do the cheeks. I painted the lips red, then went back and colored the eyes. I have since done it with edible marker that works fairly well, after the white is done. Mommaofseven-BLESS YOU!!!

Terrific cake! I too love the pizza and popcorn, though it's all wonderful! And I love that all but one of the girls at the "sleepover" has her eyes wide open :)
